Yes, but it would become a norm almost. Most people would prefer to work on. I think a figure of 60% was given for the number of people who would prefer to work on. It will almost become the norm that there will have to be an unfair dismissal at some point. I am playing devil's advocate here. If we go down the road suggested, how do we frame the legislation in a way that would be workable?
